In a world with different makeups of humans, it is expected that people will respond to love in different ways. Some are driven by words, while others prefer that you show them through your actions. Not everyone expresses or experiences love and affection the same, so be sure to communicate with your partner about how to best give and receive love. Anyone your partner chooses shouldn’t be a problem because relationships are built on communication.
There are different ways to say ‘I love you’ without saying the three words. Not all of us always feel confident saying, ‘I love you’. Many of us struggle to convey our feelings, or many of us want to find creative ways to say ‘I love you’.
Just imagine giving your guest white rice every time. What do you think the reaction of your guests will be? Tired and bored of eating the same food, right? But if you become creative with the same ingredient and prepare it in different forms like jollof rice, fried rice, coconut rice, vegetable rice, etc., you’ll agree with me that it will be much appreciated. It’s important that we know how to say these three syllables ‘I love you’ in amazing ways.
5 Different Ways To Say I love you
1. Public display of affection
Beyond uttering the words ‘I love you’, you can confess your love to your spouse by publicly recognizing them in a romantic way, such as by holding hands, kissing their foreheads, carrying her bag, wrapping your arms around them, asking them to dance, etc. This loudly tells your spouse that you’re confident about what’s in between the both of you and that you’re not ashamed to let the whole world know that she or he is yours.
2. Breakfast in bed
Waking up early to fix a meal for your partner says a lot. It shows you have them at heart and that they mean so much to you. The sacrifice you put in preparing it boldly speaks love, and I’m sure your partner will see more reason to love you. Never forget that ‘The more you love, the more you receive love’.
3. Surprise gifts
When gifts are mentioned in romantic relationships, it’s beyond the quality but the heart. Your reason for not giving gifts shouldn’t be because you feel you don’t have enough to get something suitable. The heart is what truly matters. The fact that you thought of going out of your way to get him or her a gift is simply enough. If the person truly respects what you present, then he or she will be so grateful for the gift and very happy.
4. Creating quality time for each other
Quality time is one of the love languages described by Gary Champman in his book titled ‘Five Love Languages’. Time is a very invaluable asset, so anyone who feels you’re so important will give you what’s important to them too. Perhaps you have seen husbands who leave work early to just come home to be with their wives. They’re simply displaying the three words ‘I love you’ by having time for their wives. It does say a lot.
5. By offering to help in house chores
Your volunteering to help out with the house chores is also a way of saying, ‘I love you’. ‘I desire your happiness, so anything that will lessen your work, I’m willing to do it’. You can choose to help out with the laundry, plates, cleaning, fetching water, etc. This is also a way of saying ‘I love you’ without necessarily saying those words.

To ensure this does not happen to you, you can adopt some of the ways discussed above to say “I love you” to your partner in the most romantic, charming, and sincere ways without necessarily uttering those three magical but obvious words.
Be willing to go the extra mile to show your partner that you really love them. Everyone deserves love in the sweetest way it can be shown. Be the reason why he or she desires to keep living because you reflect love in the most palpable way. Remember, ‘Love isn’t mere words; it’s seen more in the doing’. Expressing love doesn’t have to be complicated, but it can be unique.
